Test Hazel Walking Stick

[StevieE]

Working on a test walking stick for my brother before committing myself to a nice straight piece of Hazel. He wants a double handle which is a new one on me where you have two separate handles so he can swat stuff. Excuse the handy work but it is a test carved with a condor bushlore and looking more like a bannister pole the more I work on it

Pretty nice.

I striaghten hazel with an old metal drainpipe and a wallpaper stripper as a steam source

 

[StevieE]

Here's my proper piece.

 

[MrEd]

Is that straightened or straight off the tree? If straight off the tree that’s a perfect piece!

 

[StevieE]

It was straight off a tree. Best one I've ever found

 

[MrEd]

Super, look forward to seeing the finished thing
